Discount cannot be denied solely on the ground that same were not shown in sale invoices – SC

February 29, 2012 2786 Views 0 comment Print

SC held that So far as the special discount is concerned, all that the authorities have to look into whether as a matter of fact, the petitioner received only the sum originally charged less the discount. It is the look out of the traders to see that the trade increase and it is for that purpose the trade discount is given. Hence, a person may not be able to clearly prove as to why the special discount was given. But if there has been a consistent practice of giving special discount, that has to be accepted by the assessing authority. The Assessing Authority shall not reject the appellants’ claim for exemption of the amounts of trade discount solely on the ground that the discount amounts were not shown in the sale invoices.

MVAT – Submission of certain annexures by the dealers who are not required to file Audit Report in Form 704

February 27, 2012 3774 Views 0 comment Print

As per the provisions of section 61 of MVAT Act, 2002 the dealers covered under this section are liable to submit Audit Report in Form 704. Alongwith Form 704, details of the customer-wise sales and customer-wise purchases are also submitted in annexure Jl and J2 with other requisite details. However, for the dealers who are not required to file Audit Report in Form 704 there was no provision to seek the information about the customer-wise sales and purchases and also other details. The information about the latter category of dealers were not available with the department. As a result of this, it was difficult to cross check the input tax credit in respect of the dealers claiming refunds. In order to mitigate this problem and to ensure speedy processing of refund claims and to expedite the cross check of input claims, it is felt necessary to prescribe information similar to Form 704 for dealers not liable to file Audit Report. Accordingly amendments have been made to rule 17 and rule 18.
